EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Mexico City's iconic Paseo de la Reforma Avenue. Captured around 1890, this snapshot showcases the avenue's rich history and architectural grandeur. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are immediately drawn to the majestic tree standing tall amidst a sea of lush vegetation. Its branches reach out towards the sky, providing shade for passersby who stroll along this urban oasis. The surrounding botany adds a touch of natural beauty to an otherwise structured cityscape. The avenue itself is a testament to Mexico City's commitment to progress and modernity. The well-paved road stretches into the distance, lined with elegant buildings that reflect both European influences and local architectural styles. Each structure tells its own story, contributing to the diverse tapestry that is Mexico City's skyline. Intriguingly placed within this urban landscape is a striking sculpture or monument - perhaps representing an important figure from Mexican history or paying homage to artistic expression. It stands as a reminder of the city's cultural heritage and serves as a focal point for those passing by. Amidst all this action, we catch glimpses of daily life unfolding on these historic streets. People go about their business - walking briskly or leisurely strolling through this vibrant scene. Their presence adds movement and vitality to what would otherwise be just another static view of architecture. Through Waite's lens, we are transported back in time; witnessing not only a street scene but also gaining insight into Mexico City's past glory. This photograph encapsulates both the charm of nature intermingling with urban spaces and captures an era when progress was shaping one of Latin America’s most dynamic cities – Mexico City
